Chapter 123 Accusation

The chaos at the scene was even worse.

Mrs. Shen, Shen Xingzhuo and others became the focus of the media bombardment.

When Shen Hongyuan was put on the ambulance, there was a reporter beside him asking:

"Excuse me, are you deliberately evading responsibility?"

...

This highly anticipated signing ceremony ended in a way that no one could have imagined.

This ridiculous scene quickly swept the entire business district.

Lu Ran also learned the result of this time.

When he heard the news, he was in the laboratory with a micropipette in his hand.

Lu Ran's hands did not shake at all, and he put the samples into the test tubes again and again, and then shot the pipette head into the trash can.

Then he looked up at Fang Chen who rushed into the laboratory.

"Your father didn't sign it?" Lu Ran asked.

"Of course not, my dad was almost mad to death, I've never seen him look so bad."

Fang Chen pouted and shook his head.

He looked at Lu Ran and said, "You knew that Shen's finances had problems a long time ago? So you asked me to remind my dad to investigate?"

Fang Chen was still a little indignant: "I mentioned this to my dad, and he scolded me, telling me, a child, not to meddle in adult affairs."

"Look, I almost got into trouble!"

After leaving the laboratory, Lu Ran heard Fang Chen swearing and nagging a lot.

"The Shen family didn't react?" Lu Ran asked.

Fang Chen had already discovered that when Lu Ran mentioned the Shen family, he was too lazy to name them.

He always used the term "Shen family".

This term also drew a clear line between himself and the Shen family.

"How could there be no reaction? Shen Xingyu came over right away."

Fang Chen said, "But my dad was really mad this time and didn't even show up."

Lu Ran pulled the corners of his mouth and smiled.

When he returned to the Ji family, Ji Min had already gotten off work and was sitting on the sofa in the living room waiting for him.

Ji Min naturally knew about this kind of big thing a long time ago.

Lu Ran even suspected that those two news headlines that couldn't be suppressed were written by Ji Min.

There might even be people arranged by him at the signing venue.

But the man said nothing, he just took his schoolbag and asked him, "How was your conversation with the psychologist today?"

Lu Ran was silent for a moment, and began to think about how to convey the meaning of "it's useless" in a tactful way.

Ji Min saw his hesitation, sighed, and pulled him into his arms.

After a long pause, Ji Min asked, "Do you want to... go to the hospital for another checkup?"

Lu Ran immediately stood up and was about to leave: "I don't want to."

Ji Min sighed and pulled him back.

He said, "When you accompanied me for rehabilitation before, didn't you go to the hospital every day? Why didn't you resist then?"

"That's because the building you live in doesn't look like a hospital at all."

Lu Ran rolled his eyes, "Besides, it's quite interesting to see you falling around during rehabilitation."

"Then go to the hospital, and I'll continue to fall for you when you come back?" Ji Min coaxed.

Lu Ran couldn't help laughing: "Do you think I'm a child? I don't want to see you fall!"

After that, Lu Ran made an effort to jump off the man.

Ji Min held his waist and pulled him back.

He was very strong, and Lu Ran struggled for a long time, but it was of no use.

The feeling of being held by the waist and lifted around like this can easily remind people of some inappropriate scenes.

Lu Ran struggled for a while, then calmed down.

"Are you not making trouble anymore?" Ji Min raised his eyebrows.

"Am I making trouble?" Lu Ran squinted at him.

Ji Min chuckled and said nothing.

After a while, Ji Min was still a little worried, and said, "It's not a good idea for you to keep feeling pain like this."

"It doesn't hurt per se, it's just that my brain thinks I'm in pain." Lu Ran comforted him.

Ji Min sighed, "You know a lot."

Thinking of Lu Ran's rejection of the hospital, he still felt a little puzzled.

But he was helpless and could only pinch the boy's waist and said,

"You were scared when you had an injection when you were a child. Are you so afraid of going to the hospital?"

Lu Ran paused and said nonchalantly, "Maybe you have been lying in the hospital all your life and you are physiologically disgusted with lying."

Ji Min was uncomfortable hearing this. He reached out and patted the boy, scolding,

"What nonsense are you talking about? Why don't you say something auspicious?"

Lu Ran smiled and brushed it off.

After the aborted signing ceremony, the Shen family was in chaos.

Shen Hongyuan was hospitalized in a coma.

The doctor said that he had a stroke after experiencing great joy and great sorrow.

The loopholes within the company were exposed, and an investigation team came to check immediately.

The outside media were more like vultures smelling blood, blocking outside Shen's company and the community, fearing that they would miss any news.

The hospital needed the family members to come forward, and the company had to explain the incident to the outside world, and also face the unrest of ordinary employees after learning the news.

Not to mention, there was also the problem of technology outflow.

The Lino Group outside was even more powerful.

Shen Xingyu was busy and exhausted.

Three days later.

Mrs. Shen and Shen Xingzhuo rushed to the hospital.

She wrapped herself tightly with a hat and scarf,

but when she walked into the hospital, she was still discovered by the media.

A group of people immediately squeezed towards her.

Mrs. Shen still had the limited edition necklace of the top luxury brand around her neck.

On the day of the contract signing ceremony, this necklace brought her all kinds of envious looks and countless compliments.

But at this time, Shen's financial loopholes were exposed.

A reporter saw the accessories on her and asked sharply:

"What do you think of the company's financial problems?"

"The current data shows that it was your husband who withdrew money many times under various names. Do you know about it?"

"Your repeated purchases of luxury goods, are they related to these funds?"

These questions made Mrs. Shen confused.

After hearing the last one, she couldn't help but directly question the reporter: "What do you mean!"

But the reporter was not scared away at all, but became particularly enthusiastic because of her response.

"Do you mean you didn't know?"

"Does this mean that you admit that your husband is suspected of having an extramarital affair?"

All kinds of questions were thrown at her again.

Mrs. Shen was speechless: "No, that's not what I meant!"

She had been pampered for too long.

And because the incident happened suddenly, she was not prepared at all and didn't know how to respond.

Shen Xingzhuo came to the hospital and saw this scene, and he couldn't help but get angry.

He walked up and stretched out his hand to knock the camera in front of Mrs. Shen.

With a "pop", the scene became even more chaotic.

After a while of commotion, Mrs. Shen and Shen Xingzhuo came to the outside of Shen Hongyuan's ward.

The hat on Mrs. Shen's head was crooked.

Shen Xingzhuo's eyebrows were gloomy, suppressing his anger, but he didn't know where to vent.

After a while.

The elevator on the floor opened.

Shen Xingyu walked out.

His suit jacket was draped over his arm, and his shirt was a little wrinkled.

The bangs that were originally well-groomed had somewhat escaped the restraint of the hair gel and were hanging down. Shen Xingyu

had not slept for nearly three days and three nights.

There was visible fatigue on his face.

He walked slowly and tiredly to the front of the ward and sat on an iron chair beside him.

Without saying much, Shen Xingyu arranged in a light and calm tone:

"The reporters are blocking the front door. Remember to go out from the east gate later. I have arranged a car."

"Why can't you leave? Are you used to these reporters being sick?" Shen Xingzhuo said unhappily.

Seeing her eldest son, Mrs. Shen seemed to have seen her backbone. She couldn't help but complain:

"Don't you know what they asked me? They actually asked if my necklace was bought with public funds. I..."

The noisy voices rang again.

Shen Xingyu raised his hand and pressed his forehead. His fingers were deeply weaved into his hair, and he pressed the corners of his forehead hard before retracting.

He sighed, as if trying to calm down.

But when he opened his mouth, he couldn't help it after all, revealing a trace of depression that was almost collapsed.

He raised his head, looked at the necklace on Mrs. Shen's neck, and said word by word:

"Now, can you go out without wearing these things?"

Mrs. Shen was frightened by his tone, closed her mouth and took a step back.

She hurriedly took off the necklace and put it in her bag, but couldn't help but make excuses for herself:

"I, how could I think of these things? Didn't you tell me?"

Shen Xingzhuo also subconsciously said: "Okay, you don't know how difficult it is for Mom just now."

But after saying that, Shen Xingzhuo paused again.

He always subconsciously opposed Shen Xingyu.

Especially in front of his parents.

But now, looking at Shen Xingyu's appearance, Shen Xingzhuo felt that he shouldn't speak.

At this time, the door of the ward opened.

The nurse stuck her head out, looked at the family with a very curious look, and said: "The patient has regained consciousness."

The Shen family members stopped talking and walked into the ward one after another.

On the bed, Shen Hongyuan lay stiffly.

Although he regained consciousness, he had obviously lost the ability to move.

Not to mention his limbs, he couldn't even control his facial features.

His eyes and mouth twitched strangely, and his saliva flowed uncontrollably.

Seeing her husband like this, Mrs. Shen was frightened, and hurried to the bedside to hold Shen Hongyuan's hand.

Shen Hongyuan raised his arm tremblingly.

But he waved Mrs. Shen's hand away.

He groped for the cup on the bedside and threw it hard at Shen Xingyu.

But now he was obviously limited in his movements, and the cup fell to the ground after being thrown less than half a meter.

Water splashed all over the floor.

"You, what's wrong with you? Do you want to drink water? Why are you throwing Xingyu!"

Mrs. Shen was frightened and hurried to see a doctor.

The doctor coughed lightly, said that the patient was emotionally unstable, and then gave a few more instructions before leaving.

Shen Xingyu didn't expect Shen Hongyuan to react like this when he saw him.

After a moment of silence, he asked the nurse to come and clean up.

When only the Shen family was left in the ward, Shen Xingyu closed the door of the ward and asked the assistant to keep the door.

Then he sat on the chair and sighed, "Let's talk about what happened recently."

Shen Hongyuan smashed a cup and calmed down.

He just had a stroke and his mind was still clear.

Shen Xingyu talked about the company's situation and said, "I will be temporarily suspended until the investigation results come out."

After that, he paused and said, "Someone should come to the hospital in two days to ask about the situation."

"Situation? What situation? The person is in such a state, are you still coming to ask?" Mrs. Shen said.

Shen Xingyu had a headache, but he still brought up the business:

"The company data and the financial loopholes this time were all deliberately leaked to the media."

He raised his head and said, "These data are not accessible to ordinary people, and even senior executives cannot know these two pieces of information at the same time."

At this point, what Shen Xingyu wanted to say was very clear.

Unexpectedly, the one who reacted the most was Shen Hongyuan.

He slapped the bed with his movable hand and said incoherently, "Impossible!"

Shen Xingzhuo was a little slow and also reacted.

He subconsciously said, "He wouldn't do that, although..."

But halfway through, Shen Xingzhuo's face changed, and he closed his mouth with a sullen face.

Only Mrs. Shen was still a little confused.

She said blankly, "What are you talking about? Did someone in our family leak these things?"

Shen Xingyu and Shen Xingzhuo didn't say anything.

Shen Hongyuan was still mumbling incoherently: "Impossible, he must rely on the Shen family, he..."

Mrs. Shen listened for a while before gradually reacting: "Are you talking about Ranran?"

Then she smiled incredulously: "How could it be Ranran, I raised him since he was a child. Yesterday he was still worried about the company's affairs, and he is so young, how could he know..."

Mrs. Shen was stunned as she spoke.

Because she remembered that Shen Xingran asked to go to the company for an internship after the summer vacation.

Shen Hongyuan did not let him go to the grassroots level, but specially arranged an assistant position for him.

Mrs. Shen felt a little dizzy and a little confused.

She still said as usual: "Do you all think it's Ranran? How can you brothers think of him like this?"

"Besides... besides Ranran, besides him... isn't there Lu Ran!"

Mrs. Shen said in a panic: "Yes, Lu Ran is with Ji Min, and recently Ranran said that he is close to the young master of the Fang family..."

At this point, Mrs. Shen suddenly collapsed:

"Why don't you suspect Lu Ran!"

There was silence in the ward.

Because everyone knew that Lu Ran couldn't be.

Even if he could get the news, he couldn't get the exact data.

The latest breakthrough technology is the foundation of Shen's foothold, and the data is watched very closely.

Even Ji Min couldn't get the data in such a short time, and happened to reveal it to the Lino family.

Except for the Shen family.

Whether it is Shen Xingran or not, there is no need to distinguish.

Because Shen Xingran didn't come today.

A few days passed.

After the incident at Shen's, it fell into a continuous downturn. Seeing that the

situation was not good, several new investors brought in by Shen Hongyuan began to use various methods to ask for the outstanding debts.

Shen Xingyu ran around everywhere, but to no avail.

And Shen Xingran finally returned to the Shen family.

This time, he probably knew that he couldn't hide it, and there was nothing to hide. He

simply tore his face off and let Jin Lino drive him to the gate of the Shen family.

After getting out of the car, Shen Xingran and Jin Da waved and hugged each other before entering the Shen family's villa.

Shen Xingzhuo stood on the balcony on the second floor and saw Shen Xingran's actions just now clearly.

He turned and ran down the stairs, just in time to see Shen Xingran enter the living room.

Shen Xingzhuo looked at Shen Xingran with a heavy gaze and said, "What are you doing back here?"

Shen Xingran smiled at him and said, "I'll pack my things."

Then he walked past Shen Xingzhuo and swaggered upstairs.

After he packed some things and came down from the third floor, he saw Shen Xingyu.

Shen Xingyu's face was still calm, but there was a deep and lingering fatigue between his eyebrows.

He looked at Shen Xingran and said,

"I remember that the Shen family didn't owe you anything."

Shen Xingran used to be very afraid of Shen Xingyu, because he knew very well that he was nothing in Shen Xingyu's eyes.

At best, he was just a soothing agent for Mrs. Shen.

I'm afraid that in the mind of this elder brother, his only role is to find something for Madam Shen to do, so that Madam Shen won't get angry at home all the time.

Therefore, Shen Xingran has been conscientiously fulfilling his "obligations".

Now, without relying on the Shen family, Shen Xingran has completely let go.

He looked at Shen Xingyu and sneered,

"You know in your heart whether you owe me or not. According to what you said, I don't owe the Shen family anything. Now we are just engaging in normal business competition."

"Business competition?"

Shen Xingyu looked at the suitcase in Shen Xingran's hand, and said,

"The Shen family raised you. Do you deserve the name Shen Xingran when you say that?"

Shen Xingran couldn't help laughing:

"If I'm not worthy, then who is? Lu Ran? Now you let Lu Ran be the Shen Xingran. Do you think he is willing?"

Shen Xingyu's eyes darkened.

Shen Xingran looked at Shen Xingyu and said,

"I saw you talking to Lu Ran. You, the good brother, have always wanted to bring Lu Ran back to Shen's."

"Shen Hongyuan will die sooner or later. Sooner or later, you will be the one in charge of the Shen family. Will I still have a chance to live then?"

"That's what Lu Ran deserves." Shen Xingyu said in a deep

voice. Shen Xingran sneered.

He glanced at Shen Xingyu and said sarcastically,

"Don't pretend in front of me. Do you really think you are a good brother? You care so much about Lu Ran, but he has been missing for more than ten years, but you haven't looked for him seriously, have you?"

"You are both a hypocrite and a hypocrite. Aren't you evil?"

"Pah!"

A crisp sound interrupted Shen Xingran's words.

It was Shen Xingzhuo who suddenly attacked.

Shen Xingran turned his head away.

He covered his face with his hands, stood up, and slapped Shen Xingzhuo in the face.

"What qualifications do you have to hit me!"

"I'm your brother!"

Shen Xingzhuo roared.

He and Shen Xingran grew up together.

Whether in the Shen family or outside, he always protected Shen Xingran.

Even because Shen Xingran didn't like dogs, he tried his best to endure his preference and almost killed Dahuang.

Even though he knew that Shen Xingran had some bad habits, Shen Xingzhuo never thought that Shen Xingran could sell the entire Shen family.

Shen Xingran rolled his eyes.

"You want to be a good brother so much, I have to fulfill your wish?"

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Shen Xingzhuo was stunned.

Shen Xingran smiled.

He looked at Shen Xingzhuo, then at Shen Xingyu, and said:

"Shen Xingzhuo, from childhood to adulthood, do you think you are really good to me? When did I not bring up Shen Xingyu to provoke you?"

Shen Xingzhuo's face suddenly became very bad.

"Don't say it!" he said.

Shen Xingran seemed to find his behavior quite interesting, and continued:

"Then let's not talk about me, let's talk about Lu Ran. You treat him as a younger brother, why do you go to school to cause trouble for him just because you suspect that he is close to Shen Xingyu?"

Shen Xingzhuo's lips trembled and he couldn't speak.

Seeing his expression, Shen Xingran smiled very happily.

He said, "Shen Xingzhuo, you are the worst in the entire Shen family. You can't compare to Shen Xingyu in other aspects, so you can only try your best to surpass Shen Xingyu in being a brother."

After admiring the expressions of Shen Xingyu and Shen Xingzhuo, Shen Xingran continued to pull the box out.

When he was about to leave the living room, Mrs. Shen's voice suddenly came from upstairs:

"What about me!"

Mrs. Shen's face was pale. For the first time, she didn't dress up properly.

She walked out of the bedroom in plain clothes. She

walked up the stairs step by step.

Looking at the adopted son downstairs who had been spoiled by her for more than ten years.

Mrs. Shen asked, "Am I not good enough to you?"

"Whether it is Shen Xingyu or Shen Xingzhuo, whichever of these two people conflicts with you, I will protect you?"

Mrs. Shen said with a trembling voice.

She really loves Shen Xingran.

Better than any of her biological sons.

She treated Shen Xingran almost as a perfect mother.

Even though Shen Xingran spread the news that Lu Ran was an illegitimate child and embarrassed her,

she still forgave him in the end.

Looking at Mrs. Shen upstairs,

Shen Xingran paused.

He was silent for a while and said, "You are very good to me."

Hearing this, Mrs. Shen couldn't help but feel a little hopeful.

Then,

Shen Xingran looked at her and said,

"Lu Ran is your biological son, and you treat your biological son like this..."

"Who knows what you think of me."
